If ya wanna cut weight, including lean muscle, then elevating T3 is an option.
As of late, and different than a few yrs back, bloods have confirmed I've experienced a much higher rate of T4 to T3 conversion. Maybe age, maybe better GH, maybe less T as I 2yrs ago ran 750mg - 1g of T all the time, I'm not sure. I need more time on, more time logging, and hopefully I can identify the cause.
I don't see it as a bad thing. Just want to know it's how my head works.

Interesting and pretty damn cool ur still at it. Ur the master of ur life and boy do u have some fuqn experience.
Seems that one has to sacrifice lean muscle when adding T3? Just for a boost in metabolism and increased fat loss?

Honestly all that trial & fucking error is what has driven me to contribute to BOP from day 1. I hate seeing guys go thru shit when I know how to avoid it. But guys gotta learn the hard way ya know. I know I did. For example until you try Halo/Sdrol/Tren base for pwo you don't fully understand the rage it incites.
I can say that IME the catabolic effects of T3 cause a noticeable loss in fat free mass as well as body fat. Every time I've run T3 I've lost that full look but it did help offset daytime lethargy. My suggestion Pop is to experiment with regular bloods. Keep one hella detailed log and adjust accordingly. But yes T3 is catabolic, the rate of T4 to T3 conversion is accelerated with exogenous GH, so unless looking to cut weight I'd cover T4 and go from there.
I also knew I was taking too much T3 because my heart would race and when i would lay down to sleep I could hear my heart pounding in my ears.
Maybe I'm hyper sensitive to T3 but I do recall reading a published journal in the Oxford Academic Journals that showed T3 administration yielded similar loss of lean muscle and body fat at supraphysiological doses.
Again I'm not well versed on this aspect of GH use but I'm happy to share my experiences with T3 supplementation.
My Dad is an old school washed up BB'r and long time user of GH so I can always pass along a question and relay his input.

You're welcome SF.
I view BOP as a place for all of us to journal, log, or document our journey. The view and habits I had 4yrs ago might be different today. We're constantly changing and here we have the opportunity to experience acceptance and have the ability to take this journey together with like minded individuals.
I deeply appreciate the brotberhood.

My man. I also deeply value/appreciate the Brotherhood. It’s changed my life. The learning process is one of my favorites, life’s a journey and if we’re not open to learning and adapting to the beautiful gift we’ve been given what are we doing, you know? I believe here sometime in the next year I’ll fire off a SF log to hopefully help new guys like I was 2 years ago, like you helped me I hope to help others. Thanks brother.
